Hi,
I just noticed that in the documentation about right-hand fingerings in
the common notation for fretted strings: http://www.lilypond.org/doc/
v2.19/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-fretted-
strings#right_002dhand-fingerings the fifth finger isn't mentioned.
I also tried|\rightHandFinger #5| and an 'x' was printed. As I understand
it 'x' is printed for all non supported numbers.
No. 'x' _is_ the sign for the 5th finger in LilyPond
But although perhaps not so common the fifth finger is used (with the
letter 'c'):
1 = p = pulgar, 2 = i = índice, 3 = m = mayor, 4 = a =
anular, 5 = c = chiquito
I slightly disagree.
In printed editions I've found: 'c', 'x', 'e' and even 'μ' (from a greek
editor)
LilyPond should default to the most common usage, imho.
I can confirm that, 'x' is used in scores. I think I saw 'n' once, but I
am not sure.
Gould however claims that the fifth finger is normally not used at all ;-)

Though, I've no clue which that might be.
Speaking only for me, I most often see 'x', but that's only me.
Cheers,
Harm
